S.H.O.V.E.L.

This story originally posted on Tactical Fanboy.

The S.H.O.V.E.L. or Semi-Horned Oblong Versatile Eating Ladle, is not just an ordinary titanium spork. It’s also has a serrated knife, bottle cap opener, and six feet of red paracord wrapped around its body. Well, all this, and it also happens to be open-source. The product page includes the data sheet and CAD files so, given the proper tools, you can make your own S.H.O.V.E.L. and even make improvements to the design.

    Loose the cord . You cant clean it . Make a smal plastic sheath for the can opener end . Put the cord round the sheath .

    I’d rather stick to the SA-INT issue LuHa and utility/combat knife…

    I like the idea of sporks, but I’ve never found one that actually worked as advertised. I have also never been in a situation where carrying my titanium knife, fork and spoon set was such an imposition that I really felt the need to replace them all with one item.
